Suppose that the lower half of the concave mirror’s reflecting surface in the given figure is covered with an opaque (non-reflective) material. What effect will this have on the image of an object placed in front of the mirror?
1. | the image will show only half of the object |
2. | the image will show the whole of the object |
3. | the intensity of the image will be low |
4. | both (2) and (3) |
A mobile phone lies along the principal axis of a concave mirror, as shown in the figure. Then,

2. | the distortion of the image depends on the location of the phone with respect to the mirror. |
3. | both (1) and (2) |
4. | none of these |
